TABLE 2

Expression levels of one plasma membrane marker (Na+/K+-ATPase), one cell adhesion protein (cadherin-17), and drug transporters with known involvement in drug clearance in human intestine

Protein expression is represented by the mean, the S.D. of the mean, the %CV, and the range (min-max). Protein abundance is reported in picomoles per milligram of total mucosal protein.
